The kinetics of inhibition of human acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase by two series of novel carbamates.
Controlled inhibition of brain acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterases (AChE and BChE, respectively) and of monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) may slow neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. It was postulated that certain carbamate esters would inhibit AChE and BChE with the concomitant release in the brain of the OH-derivatives of rasagiline or selegiline that can serve as inhibitors o...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization of a Fungus Producing Membrane Active Metabolite and Analysis of the Produced Secondary Metabolite
Background: The majority of studies on soil Aspergillus concern the isolation and characterization of the antimicrobial compounds produced by this organism. Our previous studies indicated an isolated Aspergillus strain soil to be of interest, and this subject is further investigated here. Method: Soil samples of various locations in Iran were collected. Extract from Aspergillus sp. culture was...
متن کاملPlant-parasitic Nematode Acetylcholinesterase Inhibition by Carbamate and Organophosphate Nematicides.
The sensitivity of acetylcholinesterases (ACHE) isolated from the plant-parasitic nematodes Meloidogyne arenaria, M. incognita, and Heterodera glycines and the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to carbamate and organophosphate nematicides was examined. The AChE from plant-parasitic nematode species were more sensitive to carbamate inhibitors than was AChE from C. elegans, but response...
متن کاملInhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase Meet Immunity
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are widely used for the symptomatic treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. More recent use is for myasthenia gravis. Many of these inhibitors interact with the second known cholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Further, evidence shows that acetylcholine plays a role in suppression of cytokine release through a "cholinergic anti-infla...
متن کاملTargeting acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase in dementia.
The cholinesterase inhibitors (ChE-Is) attenuate the cholinergic deficit underlying the cognitive and neuropsychiatric dysfunctions in patients with AD. Inhibition of brain acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has been the major therapeutic target of ChE-I treatment strategies for Alzheimer's disease (AD). AChE-positive neurons project diffusely to the cortex, modulating cortical processing and response...
